When Nathan Lin saw the white princess dress turning an eerie red, he instinctively wanted to open his eyes.
"Keep your eyes closed. Don't open them."
The voice of the red paper man sounded.
Nathan Lin immediately forced his eyes shut.
In the darkness, the white princess dress had completely turned red.
Then, Nathan Lin saw a small foot emerging from beneath the red dress.
That foot took a step forward, then the other foot followed, stepping forward again.
"It's a little girl!"
Nathan Lin thought.
As this thought crossed his mind, Nathan Lin felt an unexpected curiosity rise within him.
He focused all his attention on "looking".
The red princess dress grew closer and closer.
Soon, it occupied Nathan Lin's entire field of vision.
Then, a small head emerged from the red dress.
It...
Was indeed a little girl.
And a quite delicate one at that.
However, the little girl had a blank expression, and her eyes were lifeless.
Her gaze, void of any emotion, stared steadily at Nathan Lin.
Nathan Lin also stared back at her.
"This is my Ghost Spirit?"
Nathan Lin thought.
After a few seconds of mutual staring, the little girl's dress began to turn white.
In a short time, it became an entirely white dress, looking quite adorable.
Then, everything vanished, and once again, there was nothing but darkness.
"Awakening successful. Newbie task completed. The host gains Spirit Experience +100, Spirit Pills x1, and 1 cubic meter of Storage Space. Item rewards have been automatically stored in the Storage Space."
At this moment, the system's voice rang out.
Soon after, a virtual panel appeared in front of Nathan Lin, visible only to him.
Ghost Spirit: Little Girl in White (Unnamed)
Level: Daily-Grade (Level 0)
Potential: 2 Stars
Experience: 100/100 (Experience can be gained through completing system tasks or hunting Evil Spirits!)
Ability: Red Dress
Ghost Technique: Undefined
Bond: 65
Note: Your Ghost Spirit can be upgraded. Do you want to upgrade it? If yes, please use the Spirit Pills. Would you like to use the Spirit Pills?
...
After reading the panel, Nathan Lin gained some understanding of his Ghost Spirit.
"Use the Spirit Pills."
Without hesitation, Nathan Lin used the Spirit Pills directly.
"Usage successful. Bond increased by 25."
The system's voice sounded again.
The Spirit Pills were successfully used!
Now, it was time for the upgrade!
"Upgrade!"
Nathan Lin mentally selected to upgrade.
"Upgrade successful. Your Ghost Spirit's level has been upgraded to 'Normal-Grade'."
"Your Ghost Spirit has been upgraded to Normal-Grade. You gain a body enhancement (0.5x)."
The system's voice sounded once more.
In this world, ghosts were graded in levels, which could be easily expressed numerically, but there were also more straightforward ways.
For example, the lowest grade was Daily-Grade, which referred to ghosts that could be found outside the base city. These ghosts usually had little to no offensive power, often only able to scare people, and even feared humans in some cases. However, there were occasional exceptions.
Normal-Grade ghosts, on the other hand, posed a considerable threat to humans.
For Nathan Lin to have his Ghost Spirit upgraded directly to Normal-Grade through a simple newbie task was quite impressive!
Moreover, after his Ghost Spirit leveled up, Nathan Lin himself gained some benefits!
As soon as the reward was granted, Nathan Lin felt a rush of warmth through his body. His physical abilities were greatly enhanced—his hearing, eyesight, reflexes, and more all became sharper.
"New task: A good name can help you communicate better with your Ghost Spirit. Please name your Ghost Spirit. Reward: Spirit Experience +10."
The system's voice echoed again.
"Very well, you've succeeded. Go back to your seat!"
At that moment, the red paper man's voice also sounded.
Upon hearing it, the students in the classroom couldn't help but look at Nathan Lin with envy.
If they knew that Nathan Lin's Ghost Spirit had leveled up right after awakening, they would surely envy him even more.
Of course, Nathan Lin wasn't about to reveal his golden finger. He quietly returned to his seat.
"Nathan Lin, what did you see?"
"Yeah, Nathan Lin, share some of your experience!"
As soon as Nathan Lin returned, several students whispered to him.
"Quiet."
The red paper man intervened, silencing them.
"Different people have different Ghost Taming Objects. I will continue to stimulate your Ghost Spirits with my Spirit Energy to make them react. What you need to do is to drop blood and sense whether they will respond to you..."
The red paper man began explaining to the remaining twenty-some students in the room.
Indeed, only Nathan Lin received one-on-one guidance.
"Report, my Ghost Taming Object is a rope. What should I do?"
A student, holding a long, knotted rope, looked troubled as he asked.
Some other students also had worried looks, holding objects like Shrouds.
"If it's a rope, just tie it around your neck. If it's a Shroud, put it on. If it's a knife, use it to cut your finger. If it's a needle..."
The red paper man calmly explained.
More students continued to ask questions, and the red paper man answered each one.
...
After glancing around, Nathan Lin turned his attention back to his system panel.
"Let's name her 'Coco'."
Nathan Lin thought of a name.
Although the little girl was a Ghost Spirit, she was rather cute, so this name felt fitting.
"Naming successful. Task completed. Your Ghost Spirit gains 10 Spirit Experience."
Nathan Lin looked at Coco's panel again.
Ghost Spirit: Coco
Level: Normal-Grade (Level 1)
Potential: 2 Stars
Experience: 110/500
Ability: Red Dress
Ghost Technique: Undefined
Bond: 90
